Noel was OK. Good even. He doesn't have the same presence as his brother and his HFB material is a real mixed bag. Paul McCartney is f*cking excellent as always. His band is ace too. They really have to be TBH. If you were in his position you’d pick the best session musicians to back you up on what’s possibly the biggest gig on Earth. |

What about boyfriends on shoulders, is that OK? Fit or not, it really should be discouraged. Can’t say that I’ve seen any boys on shoulders yet. having had a couple of friends who were under 5’5 it never seemed fair to raise them up and block other peoples view at gigs. Create some space for them and let everyone enjoy it. |

Hands by your sides, feet flat on the ground and keep any cheering for between songs please. And no incessant chatting to your friends throughout the set. Thats what wound me up in the last few gigs i went to. I guess that they just got tickets and continued their pub conversations, but I was there for a rare night out. |

It’s impossible not to be swept up in it all. Each time you feel it might be flagging he belts out a classic to reel you back in.

Thats quite a couple of guests. But I guess if you’re Paul you can just call them up and say “ fancy joining me on stage at Glastonbury” and only the most churlish say no.

When TLC needed a midset sit down their dj did ten minutes of tik tok dances. Macca gets the Boss to fill for him. Not too bad.

Feel sorry for the people stuck near the dick with the flares.
Those things stink to hell and back

Flares can get to fuck. The fact that the cameras pan in on them them in all the worse. I’d risk life and limb taking one of those fuckers down.

For years it wasn't legislated because gigs are on private ground but fireworks, flares and smoke bombs are now all punishable by fines and I think a possible short prison sentence. Since 2017. The difficulty is how do you get the rozzers into the crowd, and you can't search 200,000 people or however many are there. As an aside, I thought I caught a lot of booking for Bruce Springsteen. Have the Trumpists taken over this festival or something? |

Ruins everyone's view behind you and anyone nearby is distracted and hoping they don't pick up an injury. What's the point? How does that help you enjoy the music? Cunt move and I hope they fine them all. |

That was a cracking set. Amazed at his energy - didn't look any more knackered coming off as when he turned up. Adrenaline must be pumping. Guess he'll have a lie in tomorrow.
I was saying to my wife that whilst D was a good surprise, I'd have thought B was a better fit. Lo and behold!
Some proper classics but felt the vocal balance was off a bit. Not sure if it is my AV setup but even some of the chat between songs wasn't very clear.
The flare wielding twats can definitely do one. They'll burn through you in a moment. Track em down and kick em out if it were feasible.

I faded before the end of the set, hopefully it'll be up on iPlayer.

Probably not if his team and him want to monetise it.

Yeah, other headliners from yesterday are up now, but no sign of McCartney. Off to the seven seas I go!

There’s a video of Anthrax playing in Chile from a few years ago and during the big mosh part of Indians there are guys leading the circle pit by setting off flares in the middle of the pit, indoors. It looks really wild and very dangerous. But also pretty cool.

Why would you do Glastonbury and not want the beeb to have it? The 2 are hand in hand nowadays.

The audio on the BBC coverage is so good. It's genuinely the most I've appreciated my Sonos surround system in the 8 years I've owned it.

Bridget’s’ album with Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus is great (boygenius).
I struggle with the Conor Oberst album as his warbly voice annoys me.
